Rally of Water advances with reformulated route after negative opinion in Spain

The Rally of Water will proceed with a completely reformulated route after Madrid's DGT maintained a negative opinion that made the stages planned in Spain unfeasible. The organization, led by CAMI Motorsport in partnership with the Eurocity Chaves-Verín, had to urgently reorganize the entire structure of the event, opting to repeat the Chaves stage (12.16 km) three times instead of the initially planned cross-border stages. The symbolic start remains at the Main Square in Verín, but the event loses its cross-border character. The organization acknowledges the "enormous inconvenience" and promises to continue working to strengthen the link between Chaves and Verín. With the changes, the rally now features 99.90 kilometres of timed stages over a total route of 296.06 kilometres.
